Unfortunately, it's very difficult to debug acpi issues on Windows.
Gerd's been on vacation this week - so, lets give him a chance to look
at it when he gets back.  If it can't be resolved, we'll need to
revert the patch that broke Win2003.

I've seen this as well (on WinXP - I don't have Win2003).
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find out why the debug macro
fails on these older versions of Windows.
